Erik Lamela

[Japhet]

Yep of course I have - stupid question tbh. He used both feet when needed - check both goals against England at that WC for example. Hoddle was left footed but used both. Lamela refuses to use his right. Can’t remember which of his last couple of appearances but he had a clear tap in with his right but went back onto his left and cocked it up. Obviously those that sit around me (on the shelf) know nothing also, because at times he is actually laughed at. Undoubted skills But flawed also.

You reckon?

Yeah the one where you shoot yourself in the head. Ok he favoured his right but was two footed.

This is why I will be sad....one of the best days at old WHL. This is what lamela can do

As long as he proves his fitness during this last bit I don't think we'll sell
Unless those Italian clubs give us all our money back at least

Had a really tough time has the lad. Let's hope he can turn things around and catapult us to greater things in the next few months.

Really eye-opening article - makes me love the guy all the more. He has been through such a horrendous time over the past year or two. I really hope he can get his fitness back and get some form - he is a great player and the sad thing is that through no fault of his own he has hardly had much of a chance to prove it here.

Still, doesn't stop idiots from laying into him unfortunately.

Never seen a more 1 footed player. Refuses to use his right which is a major flaw. Especially for someone so skill full. Personally I won’t be sad to see him go.

Had a very good 2015/6. Obviously had to deal with a lot of s*** in his life off the field. The 1 footed bit - look at the chance against Southampton for confirmation.

Really makes me sad. Hope he can find his way back to that top form and we keep him around, preferably for life

I don't get this 1-footed criticism of left footed players. You never hear right-footed players being criticised for not using their left more

Nevermind same posted above.

What with his passing, comfort on the ball, work-rate and deceptive strength and tackling, is there any chance at all that Poch could convert him into a CM player?

Or have I been smoking crack...?

Some great insight there. Really hope he gets through all this and can stay fit, happy and healthy. Hope we can keep him around, his work rate and positivity can only help others around him.

If he can get back to full fitness, we absolutely need him in the squad. Our only creative player other than Eriksen.

Would rather keep him and get one of Malcolm/Moura than sell him and get both. If he's fit of course.

It's because people are stupid. I don't remember Dele ever using his left foot, in fact, I don't even know if he has one.

Id be quite happy if we could just convert him in to a Footballer to be honest

Oh snap!

I can confirm Lamela does in fact own a right foot:

Can we convert you into a taxidermy?
